The course

The course, starting and finishing in Lac-Mégantic, around the lake and then through Nantes, Audet and Lac-Drolet.

The start is in Lac-Mégantic. The ride loops around Lac Mégantic through Frontenac, Saint-Augustin-de-Woburn, Piopolis and Marston, then heads out to Nantes and Audet on Route 204. The main climb comes near Lac-Drolet, about 140 metres between km 77 and km 88, before the return through Sainte-Cécile-de-Whitton and Nantes to Lac-Mégantic. This is the exact route plotted here — every turn at its precise intersection.

Why This Ride

A fondo is a whole day on the bike, prepared for months. Here, it's the loop around Lac Mégantic and then the rolling roads of the Eastern Townships. Your ride, preserved in ink, one line at a time.

Make the Achievement Yours

Add a name, finish time or short dedication to turn the artwork into a personal record of the work behind the medal. Personalization is optional; leave the field blank for the original composition.

How It Is Made

The composition, hierarchy and final linework are directed by a person. A pen plotter then draws the artwork physically, line by line, with ink on paper. Small production variations can occur during physical plotting.

Plotted by a robot. Designed by a person.
